drunk yet Purple or high - it is the 4th of July - fireworks? - which reminds me of a song "Sky rockets in flight. Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight" - Jabberwocky, 2007-07-04: 15:54:00

Well Jabber, ya cursed me twice. Now I have a song stuck in my head to accompany my sinus headache. Rained all day here. It's only 60 degrees. The highlight of my day was yanking up a garlic bulb that's the size of an onion. I may have to find a site to post a pic.
